Sometimes you meet someone, and it’s so clear that the two of you, on some level belong together. As lovers, or as friends, or as family, or as something entirely different. You just work, whether you understand one another or you’re in love or you’re partners in crime. You meet these people throughout your life, out of nowhere, under the strangest circumstances, and they help you feel alive. I don’t know if that makes me believe in coincidence, or fate, or sheer blind luck, but it definitely makes me believe in something.

it’s hard, isn’t it? living with a shattered heart. you breathe in and hope the shards don’t pierce your lungs. but, eventually, they will. there is no escape from it. you will bleed. you will gasp. and you will scar. but what matters in the end, darling, is that you will survive.
